Orbit from osculating elements
101955 Bennu is placed by solving a Keplerian orbit at the simulation time (a = 1.1 AU, e = 0.2037, i = 6°, period 436.7 d).
Near-Earth asteroid visited by NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission. Samples returned to Earth in 2023.
One record per aspect. The origin says what kind of thing each value is; the source says where it came from; the limit says what it cannot tell you.
101955 Bennu is placed by solving a Keplerian orbit at the simulation time (a = 1.1 AU, e = 0.2037, i = 6°, period 436.7 d).
101955 Bennu: mean radius 0.2 km; mass 7.329 × 10^10 kg. These values are bundled with the object record and drive the rendered size.
The surface is a procedural shape unless a source record above says otherwise. It is not a measured shape model.
The short description and the fact list are written by the Space Time authors for orientation. They are not quoted from a catalog field and carry no citation of their own.
